Some of us like to actually leave the office at the office. Get a life. Not to flip out on you, because you were probably just making a joke, but this technology gives me more of a life than I was able to have without it. I can work from anywhere. I carry two Palm One Treos around with me everywhere I go. When I first started my company and had to do everything myself, I was basically housebound by my work. I always had to be within a certain distance of a computer. These phones gave me the ability to actually go out and have that life that people so desperately are trying to 'get' all the time... :)

I absolutely agree. My job requires pretty much constant availability at least 3 weeks out of the month- if I didn't have my laptop or my pocket PC I would be hard pressed to get a day out of the office. I can now take my kids to the lake, spend a day with my wife, whatever.
The "gadgets" give me a life, thank your very much.
Besides- they really are cool as hell!
